The process is named cron, not crontab. Maybe, you've used a wrong regexp.

Any update on this?

It uses about 300 KB here, and I have quite a few cronjobs. I guess, you're doing something wrong. Try vixie-cron.

Just wondering, what do you all use cron for?

I have a linux box at home, and I have vixie cron installed as a default pretty much, but I never use it for anything. I suppose that part of it is because my home computer isn't on 24/7, so I don't run a freshclam or a clamscan or anything, but other than that, I can't think of that much use for a cron unless you are a server.

So, what does everyone other than root use cron for?

cron runs a process at certains times,
